Biography
Colomba Klenner is a Boston-based painter who graduated with honors in Painting for her BFA from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design. She was born in Santiago, Chile and grew up in Singapore before settling in Boston to pursue her career in fine art and murals.
Inspired by the fungi, flora, fauna, and micro-fauna she has discovered in her upbringing across the globe, Colomba aims to inspire love for the planet with our actions.
She was featured at the MassArt auction April 2024 and March 2025. Her last solo show was featured at The Station (Fenway) in October 2024. She also most recently won the Donis A Dondis International Travel Award.
